zwack has a point about the writer name - but they’re often at the bottom when syndicated (just written differently, without the ‘by’ written beforehand). Although, taking on some routine blog format wouldn’t improve anything. The simplicity you guys are going for is a surprising breath of fresh air.

I really like the conversational tone of Adrian’s review (guessing that’s publicenemy? - had no idea he could write so well). Amplify that aspect; minimise the trying-to-sound-like-a-critic affectation (which isn’t there really but it might be something to consider). A casual - and grammatically engaging - voice is more fun to read than someone trying to be smart; they say critical sophistication is a process of mental refinement, coming up with more interesting ways to describe something, rather than the justification of pretentiousness (which can turn into sophistry, etc.) that enterprising new critics can sometimes fall into.

Anyway, hard to fault the site fellas. Very solid effort, looking forward to more.

Anyone who is interested PM me. I would do one myself but unfortunately I have barely seen ten movies this year. We do have a top ______ of 2018 list from a different artform coming up this week. There are several articles in the works, but I think many people were too busy over Christmas to write, my original plan was to fill in the gap with my own article but I also was busy. I would be happy if the mainsite posts over 52 articles in 2019. Some weeks would have 2 or 3, while occasionally there may be a week with 0 if things come up.
